Today we put our Kenian correspondent Bertha in the spotlights!

Bertha is known for her always changing haircuts. But especially for her impressive stories about strong women.

She made a story about a miss-beauty competition in a women's jail and a story about self-defense for older women to prevent themselves from being raped. Watch a collage of her work here.

Correspondent Carren from Kenya works almost two years for Metropolis now. She has made a lot of good but also funny reports since. That's why we put her in the spotlights this week with a collage of her work for Metropolis. Read more...

Collage of Carren from Kenya

March 23, 2012

Correspondent Carren from Kenya works almost two years for Metropolis now. She has made a lot of good but also funny reports since. That's why we put her in the spotlights this week with a collage of her work for Metropolis.

Besides her correspondence for our program, she is very active with other programs. She made a web series for Amnesty called Meet the Muthuku's, where the daily life of a family in the slums of Nairobi is shown. A selection of this episodes will be showed at the Young Amnesty Film Days this weekend, part of the Movies That Matter festival in The Hague.
